Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Okay, let's do everything according to what Secretary Luo said." Feng Sizhe nodded and agreed.

Secretary Luo left, and only Feng Sizhe, a municipal party committee leader, saw him off. When Secretary Luo left, he whispered in Feng Sizhe's ear, "Comrade Sizhe, it's not good to drink glucose all the time. You'll get fat."

Hearing this, Feng Sizhe was stunned at first, then he realized that the leader had seen through his tricks, so he lowered his head and said embarrassedly, "Secretary Luo, I have no choice."

"Okay, I understand, I understand, haha, sometimes you have to be a little thoughtful when doing your work. Hahaha." Luo Hao did not blame Feng Sizhe at all. Instead, he patted his shoulder happily. After what happened at the dinner table today, Luo Hao had a preliminary understanding of Feng Sizhe's abilities. He also felt that what the Miao family said made some sense. This young man was indeed capable and not simple.

After seeing Secretary Luo off, Chen Guangming came over and said, "Boss, you've had a lot to drink, why don't you take a rest first? Before dinner, Secretary-General Gao gave me the key you forgot."

"No need, let's go to the Municipal Party Committee. The entire Municipal Party Committee cannot be without someone on duty." Feng Sizhe waved his hand. He really wanted to lie down and have a good rest, but such a big city could not be without a leader on duty. Seeing that other comrades had fallen, he had to hold on.

Feng Sizhe spent the entire afternoon in the office of the municipal party secretary.

It has to be said that Tongda City is indeed very rich. For example, the office of the municipal party secretary has two suites. In addition to a separate bathroom, there is also a place for rest. It is equipped with televisions, VCRs and other equipment. This afternoon, Feng Sizhe fell asleep in this office.

After a good sleep, it was almost time to get off work in the afternoon. Feng Sizhe woke up with a start and immediately called Chen Guangming. He wanted to criticize this comrade for not waking him up. He guessed that someone must have come to report on work, but was blocked by Chen Guangming with various reasons.

Feng Sizhe called Chen Guangming over and gave him a lecture. Then he asked, "Tell me, who came to report work this afternoon and was stopped by you?"

"Boss... no one came, not a single one." Chen Guangming lowered his head and spoke softly.

Originally, Chen Guangming wanted to let Feng Sizhe have a good rest. Even if someone came to report their work, he would stop them. But what he didn't expect was that he didn't have to stop them at all. No one came to report their work at all.

"No one reports? How can this be..." Feng Sizhe didn't want to say the next words, because he suddenly thought that this might be a very normal thing. Think about it, he is a newcomer and the city has been controlled by the Gan family for so many years. It is normal that no one comes to report on their work. Maybe there are some who want to come, but they are afraid of revenge from the Gan family, so most people are waiting and watching.

"Well, then, let's walk around the building together and get familiar with the work." Since there was no one to report, Feng Sizhe decided to go and take a look on his own. After all, he couldn't waste time.

The next morning, the same situation continued, and no one came to report on their work. This phenomenon was completely abnormal. When Feng Sizhe was still the executive vice mayor, there was a long queue of people coming to report on their work. Now that he has become the secretary of the municipal party committee, the boss of the city, no one came to report on their work. Isn't this abnormal?

In the afternoon, someone finally came to Feng Sizhe's place. He said he was reporting on his work, but in fact he was just complaining. He was the mayor of Tongda City, or strictly speaking, the acting mayor, Ru Honghai. His case would have to wait until the city people's congress in March next year to be passed, which meant that he would have to serve as the acting mayor for half a year before he could be promoted.

"Secretary Feng, it's so quiet here too." Seeing that there was no one else in Feng Sizhe's office, Ru Honghai said something as if he felt the same way.

"Haha, so the situation is the same with Mayor Ru." Feng Sizhe guessed that Ru Honghai's situation would not be better than his own, but he still couldn't understand why the situation was still like this in Ru Honghai's half a month. Did he waste this half month?

As if he could see the confusion in Feng Sizhe's eyes, Ru Honghai explained, "Someone did come to report to me, but the next day, the person who reported was suspended due to some problems. Deputy Secretary Mou informed me of this by phone. I knew they were killing a chicken to scare the monkeys. Since then, no one has reported to me. I don't have any good solution."

If Ru Honghai had not said it, Feng Sizhe would not have known about this kind of thing before. This would be equivalent to Mou Guoyang and others openly suppressing the mayor's authority. This kind of thing would be impossible to happen in other cities, but it did happen in Tongda City ruled by the Gan family. This can only be said to be an eternal wonder.

"Do they think this is still the Feng Jianshe Association? Do they still think this is the ancient times when people divided the land and dominated one side?" Feng Sizhe said angrily after hearing Ru Honghai's words.

"Yes, Secretary Feng, the situation in Tongda City is far more complicated than we imagined before. It's not easy to be an official here. Look, if you hadn't been so good at drinking yesterday, you would have been the one who fell in the end." Ru Honghai said with deep emotion. Although he drank too much yesterday, he was very happy when he heard that Mou Guoyang and others also fell under the table. Although he didn't hold on to the end, Feng Sizhe won in the end, so he was still very happy.

How could Feng Sizhe not guess what Mou Guoyang and the others were thinking about yesterday's drinking table? Fortunately, he was well prepared and had a good alcohol tolerance, so he escaped. But he knew that the struggle had just begun. If he couldn't handle it at the table, the other party would think of other ways.

"Well, Mayor Ru, the current situation is not right. We have to find a way to change it. We can't be puppet secretaries and mayors. If there are problems in the city, we will be the ones to take the blame. We have to find a way to change it." Feng Sizhe would definitely not do nothing for half a month.

"Yes, Secretary Feng is right, but how can we change this situation? Both the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government are their people." Ru Honghai said in embarrassment. He had thought about it, but he really didn't know what to do.

"It's simple. If they don't come to report, we will talk to them." Feng Sizhe said firmly.

Hearing Feng Sizhe say this, Ru Honghai slapped his head and said, "Secretary Feng, this is a good idea. We should turn the passive into active."

"Okay, that's it. Let's take action this afternoon." Feng Sizhe said to Ru Honghai. He just didn't believe that the secretary of the municipal party committee and the mayor of a city would not be able to deal with a deputy secretary if they joined forces. Is there any justice in the world? Is there any law in the country?

. . . . . . . . . . . .

In Mou Guoyang's office, he was still rubbing his temples hard.

He drank too much yesterday. If the doctor hadn't come in time to give him an infusion to sober him up, he wouldn't know what would have happened. For this reason, he hated Feng Sizhe to death.

"Secretary Mou, are you okay?" Seeing that Mou Guoyang seemed to have not fully recovered yet, Municipal Party Committee Secretary-General Gao Renyi said flatteringly.

"It's okay. Hey, how come Feng Sizhe can drink so much? Could it be that the waiter poured him water?" Mou Guoyang, who was still confused about what happened yesterday, asked Gao Renyi.

"No, I arranged the service staff myself. I was afraid that Feng Sizhe would check, so I specifically ordered that the previous water-supply practices were not allowed and that everyone drink real wine. But I didn't expect this guy to be so powerful. In the end, I couldn't stand it." Gao Renyi was also indignant when talking about yesterday's events. His title of God of Wine was replaced by someone yesterday, which was something he was proud of.

"Oh, so this kid can really drink. Well, come to think of it, he is nearly 20 years younger than us and in good health. It is normal that we can't drink as much as him." Since it was not the alcohol that was the problem, Mou Guoyang came up with this set of excuses. It can be regarded as a kind of self-consolation.

"Well, he is younger than us." Gao Renyi nodded and said.

"Okay, let's talk about business. From yesterday afternoon to this morning, has anyone gone to his office to report on their work?" Mou Guoyang turned and asked Gao Renyi.

"No, although we all drank too much yesterday, I still have a lot of informants in the Municipal Party Committee. I heard from many people that no one went to Feng Sizhe's office to report on their work. Instead, he went to several departments for inspection before leaving get off work yesterday afternoon. He just took a look and didn't make any speeches." Gao Renyi said matter-of-factly. After that, he said, "It seems that this tactic of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys is still very effective. With what happened with Ru Honghai, I think the cadres with brains will not act rashly anymore."

"Haha, that's true. But the city secretary can't just sit there and do nothing. It wouldn't be good if the news got out. I think it's better to let Liu Jianmin go to Feng Sizhe and find him something to do."

"Oh, let Director Liu go to Feng Sizhe?" Gao Renyi couldn't help but applaud upon hearing Mou Guoyang's arrangement. Yes, letting Director Liu go would be like giving Feng Sizhe something to do, and it would be the most troublesome thing.

Liu Jianmin, director of the Tongda Civil Affairs Bureau, holds a rank of deputy director and is considered a middle-to-senior level cadre in Tongda City. However, his job is not easy. The reason is that the things he is in charge of are too complicated and difficult to manage and do, especially in Tongda City, where many mine accidents have resulted in so many deaths, and ultimately all these matters have to be resolved by him. For this reason, his job has always been difficult. Just the issue of compensation after an accident is very difficult to resolve. The families always have various demands, but the power of the Civil Affairs Bureau is indeed limited, and it is impossible to meet all of them. This requires a good job, and sometimes even bargaining.

"That's right. No one has gone to report to him. It doesn't matter. We can let Liu Jianmin go and find him something to do. If he doesn't do a good job, you can't blame others." Mou Guoyang said these words as if he was thinking about Feng Sizhe.
